Songs of Love and Praise No. 4 ‎#57

57. Step into the Waters of Love

1 The fountain of healing is open,
The waters are troubled to-night;
And all who shall plunge ’neath the billows
May rise in the raiment of white.

Refrain:
Then come to this fountain of healing,
Step into the waters of love;
Be clothed in the garment of beauty,
Be heir to the riches above.

2 There’s nothing unholy can enter
The beautiful kingdom of light;
The garments of all must be spotless,
Who sit with our King on the right. [Refrain]

3 Oh, come with your sins and transgressions,
This moment stop into the pool,
To rise from its depths with rejoicing,
With not a dark blot on your soul. [Refrain]
